GermanMeat Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 When shutting down the Pineapple, does it need to be done a specific way? I noticed every other boot , my SD isn't being recognized. It was freshly formatted w/ swap file working. When I unplug for 5 min and reboot, it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesugarat Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I'm pretty sure this has been asked before and the answer was No... I just yank the plug and never have had any issues. Of course I tend to shut programs down before I do that but I don't send any linux "power off" commands or anything. Is your SD card the original?

GermanMeat Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 Using a 8gb SD w/ swap file that was formatted and prepped via Pinapple. The SD mounts when I use the Reboot function in the Pineapple GUI or wait 10sec. before plugging it back in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Kitchen Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 What filesystem is the 8GB SD? Does it re-mount on eject / reinsert? This is the first I've heard of this issue. I've always just pulled the plug without issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesugarat Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I was more poking at the Class rating of the SD card than anything. If it was formatted by the pineapple you should be good. In the older versions of the firmware I would rarely see what you are describing. I would yank the power and reseat the SD card and it would boot up just fine. I haven't really used 1.04 enough to see if it happens again. Even in the old ones it wasn't every other boot though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ret0n Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 (edited) I've been having some SD issues lately too. Just after the last firmware update it did not recognize the SD card. I had to reformat it just to get it to show again. Its an upgraded 32g class 10 card. Edited May 24, 2014 by Ret0n Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
